Description

After successful installation of "JRuby 1.6.0.RC3 Windows Executable", graphical irb 1.9.2 failed to start.
Error log contents:

NoMethodError: undefined method `hook_into_runtime_with_streams' for #<Java::OrgJrubyDemo::TextAreaReadline:0xa193fe>
(root) at C:\jruby-1.6.0.RC3\/bin/jirb_swing:44

Starting irb 1.8.7 resulted the same.
"jruby executable 1.6.0.RC3+JRE" gave the same error.
Previous version 1.6.0.RC2 also did the same.

Is it possible you have an older version of JRuby installed somewhere on your system? We should be able to make this start up much more robustly, but I would like to figure out why yours is not launching before I try anything.

Could you try a few things:
1. Look at System and Application environment vars (or just type set in a command shell) to see if there are any environment settings which may be pointing at an old jruby.jar. CLASSPATH would be an obvious one.
2. Try running jirb_swing from a command shell to see if you see the same behavior

Problem is fixed.
My environment settings had had Turkish locale. I was able to switch back to full English locale (regional options,languages, language for non-Unicode programs, etc.) and the problem's gone. Partial switching to
english did not help.
Though better support for different languages even in development environments should be considered.
